The twentieth century has seen a remarkable evolution in
environmental health and environmental protection concerns and
concepts in the United States. Human Health and the Environment: A
Turn of the Century Perspective is intended to be a commentary,
suitable for a wide audience, on the broad aspects of the
relationship between human health and the environment at the turn
of the century. Although written from the perspective of a
technically advanced society, Human Health and the Environment: A
Turn of the Century Perspective addresses the different
environments, and human health problems arising from these
environments, in third-world and emerging societies. The book is
divided into several sections, including a general introduction and
discussion of epidemiological approaches, community pollution
problems (air, water, solid waste, radiation), specialized
environments (residential, occupational and institutional),
consumer products and the food supply, and integrated pest
management. It closes with a chapter related to predictions for the
21st century. The approach of Human Health and the Environment: A
Turn of the Century Perspective is to examine environmental threats
to human health from the perspective of sources and pathways, as
well as to examine the scope of human health effects and
environmental interventions, including engineering and technical,
educational and legislative elements.
